Rafiq was the most amazing tour organizer. We were a family of four, with one Indian, and three foreigners, including a 4 year old child. I contacted Rafiq in advance and told him my needs. We wanted two half day tours instead of one full day tour because our daughter would not have been able to manage the July heat and humidity for more than 4 hours per day. He went much beyond his published services at our request. He picked us up from the airport at 11pm and was present the next day at the hotel at 10 am along with a guide. We decided to leave the itinerary to them and they customized it perfectly for us on the go based on our collective mood. Rafiq is not just the organizer, he was also the driver and had a rich knowledgeable of the history and geography of the region. He recommended a visit to Haathi Gaon or Elephant Village, which was the highlight of our tour, apart from the forts and arts and crafts workshops/outlets. He also recommended amazing fine dining but traditional restaurants for the evenings where foll dances were performed. He also agreed to drop us off at Agra in the third morning by car and went beyond what was required of him. He made a detour to the amazing Chand Bawri stepwells en route and was also happy to stop over at Fatehpur Sikri for no extra cost. We were very thankful that he also helped organize a professional tour guide to the Taj Mahal at very short notice. We had arrived at Jaipur fully entrusting ourselves into the hands of an unknown tour organizer based in reviews online and were fully satisfied with his professional conduct and planning. He improvised on the go as we requested in the most incredible and positive manner. I highly recommend Welcome India Tour Jaipur and Rafiq, the owner, to anyone who would like a professional organizer and driver.
